The Bronze Color Guard medal was created for presentation at the State and Chapter levels.  The basic requirement is that a Compatriot participate in Color Guard activities for a period of not less than 3 years and participate in no less than 50% of the Chapter or State Color Guard activities.  This service may be broken, not continuous service, and can be awarded retroactively,  so that a living Compatriot may receive it for past service.

National's Silver Color Guard medal was created as a reward for faithful services at the District and National levels.  The requirements are that the recipient must have attended one National Congress and one Trustees Meeting in each year of a three year period.  A District Parade (i.e. Point Pleasant, Cowpens, California's George Washington Massing of the Colors) will substitute for a Trustees Meeting.  Without a National Congress, the recipient must have participated in both Trustees Meetings and two authorized District parades as designated.  Special National and Historic events will qualify as a substitute for the Congress or Trustees Meetings as designated by the National Color Guard Committee.
